Psychotherapy and Counselling in Archway, Islington N19 and online
Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed and alone with difficult emotions. Having a safe, supportive space to talk openly can help you better understand your feelings, navigate difficulties, and develop resilience.
My clients have told me I make them feel like they matter, which has given them confidence to make important changes in their lives.
I offer a free initial phone consultation, which gives us a chance to talk about what has brought you to therapy, any questions you may have, and whether working together feels like the right fit
Areas I help with
I specialise in supporting people with challenging life events and painful patterns.
This includes:
Difficult early life experiences
Mental health difficulties, including anxiety and depression
Trauma
Loss of confidence and low self-esteem
Family and relationship issues
Addiction, including drug, alcohol, sex and gambling
How we will work
As a psychodynamic therapist, I will work to bring meaning to emotions and patterns that may feel confusing or stuck, exploring how your history shapes the way you relate to yourself and others.
This deeper understanding opens the potential for lasting change.
I work collaboratively and at your pace, offering a warm, non-judgmental space for you to reflect and gain insight into the deeper layers of your experience.
At times I will draw on other therapeutic methods to offer you individualised support.
